Long Distance Paths in the UK

This is an alphabetical list of the Long Distance Paths within the UK, spread over a number of pages. There are nearly 900 listed here so far and this list is intended to grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information. In the case of our listing, Long Distance Paths we have taken to mean those walks and paths that have a minimum distance of 20 miles. The list does include the National Trails as well as coastal walks, rural, mountainous, over moorlands and both river and canal waterway paths. You do need to know a path by name rather than by area, but at some point we may be able to create a geographic list for you, but with long paths they tend to go through many counties.

We have other pages that concentrate on major coastal walks, National Trust Coastal Walks and the National Trails and you may find more useful links from these pages.

Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked this links to a Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location pages.
